Red Crossbill (Loxia curvirostra). Crossbills are characterized by the mandibles crossing at their tips, which gives the group its English name. Using their crossed mandibles for leverage, crossbills are able to efficiently separate the scales of conifer cones and extract the seeds on which they feed. Adult males tend to be red or orange in colour, and females green or yellow, but there is much variation.
In North America, nine distinct red crossbill variants (referred to as call types) differing in vocalizations as well as beak size and shape are recognized. Each call type evolved to specialize on different species of conifer.

Shot for Week 9 of my "52 Weeks of 2022" flickr group project given the theme "Musical Instrument".
This was a tough one for me. I don't have any musical instruments at my house. Luckily my neighbor came to the rescue and loaned me his guitar. My original concept was to shoot the neck of the guitar getting the strings wrapped around the first post in sharp focus, and let the rest go soft from the shallow DOF. I got some good shots for the concept (I posted them as "Runner Ups" in my photostream), but the red of this guitar was calling out to me. So I setup a shot from the base, the color really popped, and I was hooked.

Pagham Harbour, West Sussex. Great place for bird spotting. I also spotted a couple of nice Big Bambooly Beacons there too. I even lined it up as well… (just add moonlight). : )

We have had the yellow Pyracantha , now the one at front which is red . the blackbirds have a teste for these and with a handrail running alongside the bush they find it a handy stepping stone .
I did contemplate a shot here for next week's SSC , but I did get an alternative shot which has more impact which may get used if I do not think of something a bit more out of the box !!

RAF Shawbury 29.04.2016
60 Squadron celebrated their centenary. They are based at RAF Shawbury. They had the Red Arrows in and also the Typhoon.
Controversially the general public were told to stay away from the perimeter fencing and there was a police presence.
I have been following a local pair of red kite since April and they have grown used to my presence - the mobbing became less frenzied as they recognised I didn't pose a threat. The site is close to a main path so they also got used to human presence in that way. Recently they went very quiet and then I saw three in the air - this is junior the product of their breeding cycle. Milvus milvus.

A Red-whiskered Bulbul clicked in the backyard. They live in thickets, near cultivated areas and gardens, and in big towns. They also like lightly wooded areas. Resident in their range these birds are always welcome due to their friendly nature and lovely song.
